The WIP Japan Way
Keeping to our principles, pursuing our freedom
Creating in a way helpful and enjoyable to others leads to true personal satisfaction.
We want to realize this satisfaction through our work. Although there are some tasks that can be done alone, most work needs partners all following a common goal. Such a group is called a “company".
Yet, a lot of people wonder how they can fit into the established framework known as a company. On the other hand, a lot of companies wonder how they can fit you into their established framework. The satisfaction we are striving for is certainly not there.
“To offer things that help, that bring enjoyment, to the people round the world”
This is WIP's raison d'etre. While a small company, we are driven by the wish to help create a world of deeper mutual understanding. Together we strive to do work that fulfills, that has meaning and to share the happiness this brings.
A life is by no means so hollow a thing as to settle only for money, amusement, and status. If you are an individual with vision, courage and passion, please take part in the WIP enterprise. The work may be tough, but is always full of possibilities to utilize your creativity to the fullest. Furthermore, you are able to project yourself internationally while supporting individuals and companies taking their endeavors into the world.
What WIP seeks in its staff
An individual with untiring aspiration and the passion to contribute to society.
Policy
WIP Japan is constantly changing along with social conditions and the market. The one thing that does not change is our basic belief. We believe that no one should stop at the mastering of a single field, but keep striving to cultivate his or her skills ever further. The fundamental spirit of this is one of ‘self cultivation' and ‘service'.
Entering WIP, you learn from the ground up the meaning of ‘self cultivation' and ‘service' . It is by no means an easy task, but we seek people to work with us who share our deep motivation to work for a world based on mutual understanding.
Conveying all we stand for here in brief is not possible, but if what you read here strikes any chord at all, please do not hesitate to send us your application.
